Visitor Visa Processing time

[chaksbaks]

Congratulations! Did your mycic show any update before the passport request?

Thanks, yes it was updated soon as I got an email that I have message on my cic account. When I logged in it had pdf attachment requesting to submit the passport. I am figuring now whom should I ask to visit the vfs office and submit and then collect it because my mother can not do this alone and no courier companies like fedex, bludart comes in the city where she lives. I do not know how long the visa will be valid although I ask for 10 year multiple visa (passport valid until 2024)

You can ask an authorized representative to submit her passport to the nearest VAC.

Blue Dart will figure out a way to deliver the passport. Processed passports will be returned only through Blue Dart

Hi Byranna,

It does not say online or paper, so I guess it is for both. Hoping for it to be faster than what is stated though.

Goodluck
